Patent EP-0281742-A2 (EP)
Inventor: FRISCH RUDOLPH ARNOLD
IPC: G06F40/191
Filed: 1988-01-22
Abstract: This invention describes a method for automatically verifying spelling of compound words in many natural languages such as German, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Dutch, Icelandic, Afrikaans, Swiss German, etc. The basic technology of looking up words in a dictionary is supplemented by the association of component flags with each word and by the application of powerful tree-scanning techniques that isolate the components of compound words and determine their correctness in isolation and in association with each other. The technique can be used in word processing systems to support spelling verification, to hyphenate text, and to unhyphenate text.
Patent EP-0291629-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SCHAFER HANS-JURGEN
IPC: H05K3/02
Filed: 1988-01-30
Abstract: The process involves compressing a resin-impregnated fabric (prepreg) with a copper foil by means of a double-belt press under pressure and temperature, the copper foil and the prepreg being pre- heated before or, respectively, during entering into the double-belt press. Homogenous production of the ribbon-like base material with consistent properties over the entire surface area is accomplished by the preheating being performed pressurelessly to a temperature below the melting point of the resin, by the laminate being formed in a first compressing zone (6) with increasing of the temperature and gelling of the resin and by the laminate subsequently being cured in a second compressing zone (7) at an increased temperature with respect to the first compressing zone. The volatile constituents are removed in a venting zone (9) and, when the laminate leaves the double-belt press, it is subsequently treated pressurelessly in a conditioning zone (8) at a temperature of 150 to 220 DEG C.

Abstract: A cassette for erasing remnant radiation images on a stimulable phosphor sheet without the necessity of taking out the sheet includes a casing for accommodating the stimulable phosphor sheet and a cover pivotally mounted to the casing so as to be opened or closed. The cassette also includes a light reflecting member for reflecting or diffusing the light introduced from outside the cassette for irradiation on an image recording region of the sheet, or a light transmitting member for transmitting the light introduced from outside the cassette or the light from an inner light source, or a light emitting device mounted at least in register with the image recording area of the stimulable phosphor sheet contained in the cassette. 
     An erasure device for a stimulable phosphor sheet employing the cassette is adapted to erase radiation energies stored in the sheet by irradiating the sheet with an erasure light, and includes a housing, a device provided in the housing for opening the cassette placed at a predetermined position within the housing and accommodating the stimulable phosphor sheet to be erased, and a light source device provided in the housing and adapted for irradiating the erasure light on the stimulable phosphor sheet within the cassette in the opened state. The arrangement is suitably applied to cases wherein the stimulable phosphor sheet is stored without being used for prolonged time, in which cases the sheet may be employed directly since the secondary erasure directly before usage of the sheet is not required.

Abstract: An optically powered sensor system includes a plurality of sensors (S₀, S₁, S₂, S n-1 , S n ) connected to a system optical bus (16) that communicates with a system controller (22). Optical energy is transmitted along the bus for distribution to all sensors in the system with return pulses from the various sensors transmitted on the bus (16) to the system controller (22). Each sensor includes a photodiode array (52) for converting optical energy transmitted system-wide by the controller into electrical energy for storage in a storage capacitor (57) associated with each sensor. A transducer (40), such as a thermistor, and a fixed-value reference (44), such as a resistor, are connected to a pulse encoder (42) and, in response to power switched from the capacitor, the pulse encoder produces a series of short-duration pulses having a pulse spacing (T₃-T₄. T₅-T₆) that is dependent upon the fixed value of the reference and the parameter-affected value of the transducer. The pulses are used to drive an optical source for transmitted optical pulses (P₁, P₂, P₃, P₄) from the sensor to the system controller. The parameter value is determined by multiplying the known value of the   reference resistor by a time factor ratio which is related by the reference pulse timing and the parameter-affected pulse timing. An optical sensor system is provided in which the measurement of a parameter by each sensor is immune to variations in the electrical components at each sensor.

Abstract: A line pressure control during a shifting operation of an automatic transmission is disclosed. Quality of each shifting operation is represented by a predetermined variable, viz,, an inertia phase time during which a gear ratio undergoes a variation. When a deviation between circumstances detected upon occurrence of a shifting operation and predetermined circumstances under which a target value is set fails to fall in a predetermined range, a deviation indicative signal is generated. Upon absence of this deviation indicative signal after completion of the shifting operation, the inertia phase time measured during the shifting operation is compared with the target value and the line pressure is adjusted in response to this comparison result when the shifting operation of the same kind is to occur under substantially the same circumstances detected. In other words, the learning to adjust the line pressure is prohibited when the deviation indicative signal is present.
